What are the odds? We are parked right next to a U270 that is like our first

We just pulled into Lake View RV resort on south Main St in Houston TX and we are parked right next to a U270 that is just like our first coach. What are the odds? Has this ever happened to you? Nobody home right now but maybe we will meet the owners before we leave.

Years ago, shortly after my inlaws downsized from a Revcon to a smaller rig, my wife and I spotted the old rig parked near in Quartzite. I recognized it by the familiar bucket under the dump valves.

While in NAC this past November, we had some work done at MOT.  While walking the lot, I spotted a U270  36 ft like ours, decals and all.  Later that day, a sign went in the door- it was up for sale.  Guess what- it was a 2001 just like ours was when we bought it 7 years ago from MOT.  I took Karen for a walk through it, WOW- memories. 

She said " that is the coach I fell in love with 7 years ago."

We are still living in it full time today- with some changes. 

Merry Christmas to all.

It has happened two me twice.  First in 02 at Fishing Bridge, I was backed into my spot and then another FT backs in behind me.  Sadly, he was not very friendly.  Then this past summer in ID a FT pulled in next to me and was friendly and we had a great time.  I also met a few of the Alaska motorcade members too in a campground in MT.
